Ugh...I feel sick...and I cant sleep. The more I think about it and things...the more hopeless the wish of sleeping gets.
I guess I am just worrying myself sick...I just wish things would get less stressful.
Work was hell during the last parts of yesterday. This customer tried paying with a check, and we font accept checks anymore. I told her this...and tried lying saying that she talked with a manager about it and it was ok. I told her I would call to comfirm it...and she told me that I could not call. I looked at her and said that it was protocol that I make sure.
Well, she got angry...and took the pizza from my hands with her check...and went to my truck and grabed my cell. I called Betsy up and she did not approve of the check. So I put her on the phone with this lady...and there was squabbling. During all this, the man in the household went to see if he had cash. Though, in his hand I plainly saw a fucking $20. Do they think I am blind?! This woman so lied about a manager(Betsy being the ONLY one at this point) approving the check and them not having cash(the man had a fucking $20). So, Betsy accepts it one last time...and I take the check...and the bitch customer asked me for dollar back, seing that she put a dollar tip on the check. Well, I give it to her in cash...and she commented "People like you dont deserve tips!"
She then decided to slam the foor in my face! That really messed up my night!
Oh, what pisses me off...was that I was doing my job! I was told NOT to accept check from ANYONE! Not rich people, poor people, not anyone! Heck, I would not accept a check from my own mother, or Bill Gates! I did my job as I was told was right...and I get fucking stiffed for it! Why is it that when I do the right thing...I get either boned, screwed, stiffed, and/or hurt? Is inconvience such a foreign concept to these people? They are lucky not to be those who lived in New Orleans...to be a victim and refugee! Take solace in that...and not be such a bitch because I cant accept your check due to company policy. I dont do it because I want to...rather make life easier...but I guess not.
Why do people get all bitchy when they are inconvienced just a little? I mean...I see people get attitudes when the line is too slow at a grocery store, when a waitress is having a hard time, when a Papa Johns driver cant take a check, and whenever things dont go 100% there way. WHY!? I mean...the world and it's people are not perfect! Why think that things always have to go the way you plan or want? Always have a backup plan...have availible just in case you find a check is not acceptable. I mean...you should have seen it comming...most places dont take them anymore because ALOT of people cant be trusted to write good ones! Hell, I am one of them!
Dont get all pissy with the low-wage workers who go out of their way to serve and please you...for a measly 5.50 an hour plus tips! I dont make the rules, calls, or decisons. I follow them and bring the pizza to your door. You know, with gas prices how they are...I should make your fatass come get your pizza...and not waste the gasoline in my Ford Explorer! You know...I dont make enough to be treated that way!(Note: I am talking as if I am talking to the bitchy customers...dont take offence to it unless you are those bitchy customers). We are providing you a great service so that you can sit in your home and do your own shit...and we come to YOUR door and bring your food! We travel to good neighborhoods and bad neighborhoods to bring your food! We put ourselves in constant potential danger for your FOOD! Get that...for measly FOOD! Not for grand reasons....NO! We do all this to appease your fucking hunger, you lazy fatass! Show a little appreacion! You are spending the price of the food, tax, and a delivery charge! You are not spending your precious 2.99/gallon gas like we are!
All we drivers want...is a few bucks here and there in the form of tips...THAT IS ALL! We dont ask you to fill our tanks or anything like that. All we ask is that you give maybe a dollar or two. Is it THAT hard? I mean...a dollar...that gets you a soft drink. Can you give up a soft drink...and show appreciation to those who save you time and gas by bringing you you damn pizza...so you dont have to come to us and get it!
I can honestly say that I am apalled by this woman's actions! Her actions dont represent all the customers we serve to...I can say that I have delivered to some AWESOME ones yesterday as well...who were sympathetic that I deliver in a SUV and gave me a buck extra in an already good tip! Not all customers are like this woman...but I do have to say that the ones that are I am digusted royally. I hope that she sees later on how heartless she was. She has money(her house was nice enough to prove that!)...not she cant pull money some other way than a check. I know we have accpeted them a long time...but times change. You have to accept and adapt sometimes.
